Hi there!
On Friday I got a big weird boil, and the doc said "I'll just check your blood sugar." It was 17.1 and it was first thing in the morning - I hadn't eaten or drank anything. Eep! I had no idea I had diabetes and I don't seem to have any particular symptoms.
I went straight to the pathology nurse and got my bloods done and my hba1c was 11. Urinalysis had ketones. My doc has been very thorough and wants me to take in another Urinalysis in the morning and will let me know if I need to go to hospital to get some insulin.
Does anyone have a similar experience?
